When my school’s short term mission group returned from Tactic, Guatemala a couple weeks ago, they transported some gifts sent by very special friends. It’s amazing how taste and smell can transport one so intensely to distant memories.
In our package, we got chirrepeco tea (grown locally), some horchata drink powder (Tang brand), Tortix lime flavoured corn chips (everything is flavoured lime in Central America), a brick of chocolate to make hot chocolate Guatemalan style, and then my vice-principal gave me a couple pounds of Dieseldorff coffee from Cobán – sooooo goooood.
Thanks!!
